Stille reaction

From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.

In organic chemistry, the Stille reaction couples a stannane with a aryl, benzyl, or vinyl halide or triflate.

In overview:

R₁-X + R₂-M → R₁-R₂ + M-X

• R₁ and R₂ have sp2 hybridization as in a phenyl or vinyl substituent
• M is often tin but can also be boron, zirconium or zinc
• the catalyst is based on palladium
